..if items are marked, checkout will have manual cash registers so they know how much to charge?

Judging by past experience with our New Generations of retail store cashiers and making change for a cash transaction, the transition from bar code to barter is going to be almost instantaneous.

Add the spectacle of those same individuals attempting simple addition simply adds a dose of humor.....and figuring Sales Tax turns it into a farce.

True story.

Be me. Go to McDonalds. Order a meal. Comes to $6.13. Give attendant a 10. She rings it up before I pull a quarter out and put it on the counter.

See panicked look on her face. Say, "Just give me three tens and a five."

She takes money out of register. I have to stop her and explain it was a joke. She doesn't get the joke.
